(I'd actually checked my own firewall settings, and port 20 is open for ftp; I tried opening up another port to see if the remote would find it, but it didn't. So I was at a bit of a loss as to which of us had a problem.) Guess I now have to persuade the ISP to tell me which port they have open for ftp traffic -- presumably they've closed down port 20 to discourage the black-hats.
